We're Rollin', Rollin', Rollin'

It has been a bit since I put some pictures up of the house! Since the last post about our house we have moved into our basement and are working on the main floor. Jesse started laying the hardwood and it is going to be beautiful! Light fixture are almost all completely hung and the painting is finished except for a little bit of trim work that I need to get done! Being in the basement has it's advantages and disadvantages! The advantages are that we are all there together and we are able to keep working on the house even after the girls go to sleep. The disadvantage is that we can keep working on the house even after the girls go to sleep which means we are putting in some LATE nights! :) I am sure these late nights will all be worth it in the end!

This is our bedroom. Light Fixture is hung!

End of Fall Soccer Season!

Our girls had a great fall season this year with soccer! The girls both changed teams and learned a ton from their new coaches! We are so happy for them and the accomplishments that they made during this season. Hannah's team finished 3rd place in their league and grew as a team greatly! Allee's team finished undefeated in their league and won 2nd place in the tournament that they played in! GREAT JOB GIRLS!! GO MAG*IC!

Fall Party at GRANNY'S

We went to Granny's house for her ANNUAL FALL Party Friday night before Halloween. Granny enjoys seeing the kids dressed up and as usual we had a great time with all of our cousins! It is always entertaining when we get together! In the past even Granny has joined in on dressing up :)

The Clown and our 2 Butterflies! Umm...Not sure what you would call this creature! Jesse and BOZO. Allee and Grandma wrapping Granny in toilet paper! Jesse and I even got dressed up at the last minute!

We Are Almost In...To the Basement That Is!!

We have been working hard to get the basement finished so we can get moved in next week! We are so EXCITED as I am sure you all know:) Things are really starting to come together and it is really starting to look like a home!! We have really learned how truly blessed we are with family and friends through this process! They have helped any so many ways...doing laundry, helping run our kids to soccer practice and even games, coming out to the new house and helping clean, painting, hauling dirt and rock for our yard, letting our family use big equipment, staining trim and doors, wiring our house, giving up their own personal family time to help us, whatever it has been our friends and family that live around us have been here to help! We love you all so much! Words can't explain how much it all has meant to us!!

Aunt Brenda We Miss You!!

Aunt Brenda was here for a couple of weeks from PA! We enjoyed every minute we got to spend with her and wished her stay was longer! The girls have already been asking when she is coming back :) Aunt Brenda is Papa Chuck's sister and we are thankful that they are both part of our family! Thanks Aunt Brenda for loving us!
